Our Family Christmas
This year we decided on a Family Vacation to celebrate Christmas!! Vanessa helped us check all the boxes that we need checked when we travel as a Family. Upon check in, the hotel could not (would not) make good on the requests we made for our room accommodations. As soon as Vanessa heard about our situation she intervened and took care of everything!!! She reminded us immediately the value of booking with a travel agent. She took all of the stress out of our situation so we could get back to enjoying our family vacation. Vanessa you were amazing, Thank You

Incredible 30th anniversary trip
Vanessa planned an incredible 30th anniversary trip for my husband and I to Portugal. We knew we wanted to go to Portugal, but we did not know exactly to what areas. Vanessa provided us information on locations and created a wonderful itinerary for us. It was very easy to work with her and she guided us along through the whole process. Our trip was amazing ! From the car service to the hotels to the excursions planned, it was perfect ! We are so happy that we chose her as our vacation planner We are looking forward to using her again on our next trip! Thank you Vanessa For making our 30th wedding anniversary so special!

Exceptional Service and Unforgettable Experiences
I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience working with Vanessa Raftery! From start to finish, she made planning our trip an absolute breeze. Vanessa’s attention to detail is unmatched — she took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for in our vacation and crafted an itinerary that was perfect for us. Not only did she recommend amazing destinations and accommodations, but her insider knowledge made all the difference in ensuring we had a smooth and unforgettable experience. What really sets Vanessa apart, though, is her dedication to exceptional service. She was always available to answer questions, provide advice, and even made last-minute adjustments when needed, all with a warm, friendly, and professional attitude. It was clear that she genuinely cares about making her clients' travels as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. Thanks to Vanessa, we had the trip of a lifetime, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!

Such a great family Christmas in paradise!
When my sister and i decided at the last minute, to book a family Christmas trip to Aruba, we reached out to Vanessa for assistance. We were afraid that we were too late to book anything for a family of 8, but Vanessa took on the challenge with a smile. She was patient with us, and worked to meet all our requests and requirements. She found several resort options for us to select between, she advised us on the resorts she felt would best meet our needs, and once we made a decision booked everything. Throughout the trip she checked in on us, and offered assistance if it was needed. Thanks to her planning and follow up, we had a fantastic family vacation!! We will work with Vanessa again in the future!!
